Re: Random thread- for all things random.
On a lighter note... I told my kid to go the fuck to sleep and she did. Never in a million years would I have thought that would have worked.
On a lighter note, Leo my love... What happened?
What? This is the rando thread, right?
And don't tell anyone IRL that you think your pump is saying words, bc then anytime that person is within earshot, they'll poke their head in to tell you their opinion of what it's currently saying. Thanks Great-Grandma.
And @helloblueeyes, t&p your way! Sorry for your loss!
DD is starting to outgrow her newborn clothes but 0-3 are still huge on her. She's in this awkward in between stage that makes it look like I don't know how to properly dress my child.

@honeybee434 my LO is too and it's making me crazy. He looks like a sausage in NB clothes but has tons of room in the neck and leg holes in 0-3. #babyproblems
I know that guilt, but remember that your sanity and happiness is also important to your and DS2's health. the Formula Feeding thread is full of women who started with formula, are supplementing or had to quit BF or EPing. Go read about us or ask questions. Sometimes switching to formula is the best choice.
No but seriously, pumping sucks. I feel the same way about how he eats much much faster with a bottle, and that sucks more too because it means I get to sit and pump in a room by myself while someone else gets to feed my babe. Pumping totally sucks, but I can't quit. I want it for his health. It just sucks that I have to put all this time and effort into pumping and STILL have to supplement.
I'm about to break my own rule and text a surgeon I work with to ask her if she would look at DH's hand before the stitches get removed. I just don't want him getting them taken out before it's healed well enough and I know they'll just send the nurse in to do it without really looking at it. He has to be cleared by the employee health nurse before he can go back and I just want a wound consult beforehand (he's a nurse as well and I don't want him in isolation rooms with compromised tissue). I haven't asked for a favor before and I hate feeling like I'm getting special treatment, but I'm just too freaking paranoid to not do it. Another fear is that it won't be ready and they won't let him go back to work. That means no income since my PTO has been used up on maternity leave, and he hasn't been there long enough to accrue PTO. Ugh. I'm stressed.
